Core Tip	The results of this study indicate that Clostridium difficile (C. difficile) infection induces more severe colitis in the interleukin 10-deficient (IL-10-/-) mouse model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Moreover, induction of interferon-? gene expression was greater in the IL-10-/- mice and their bone marrow-derived dendritic cells compared to wild type mice following C. difficile infection and exposure to C. difficile toxin A, respectively. This study demonstrates the establishment of C. difficile-aggravated colitis in an IBD animal model, which provides a useful tool for studying the relationship between C. difficile and host immune response of the gut in IBD.
